I know you guys want the 16X but I don't think your cards saturate the 8X or 8X/8X? So I think real world all good?

I do not see how PCIe could affect what is all internal to the GPU (OC, core/RAM) as PCIe is external to the GPU. I could see in theory how would effect the outcome/benefit of OC but not OC itself.

It's PCI-E Gen 2. Gen 2 has double the bandwidth of regular PCI-E. Therefore your 8x on Gen 2 is getting the same bandwidth as 16x. I have the same notebook with 280M SLI, nothing to worry about.

The R2 is far superior to the R1
